President CLEVELAND couldn't resist
the temptation to give the civil service
reform crank another turn in his address
at the unwilling of the Garfield statue
The continued prating of the President
upon this subject does not come i'll very

of his alleged reform is known and con
sidered. A little more, consistent work
and great deal less talk would be bet

WHEN a died-in-the- wool democratic
standby like the Waco Examiner lays
the blame of the miserable Texas mail
service directly and with fat-footed EN-
phasis upon the democratic department
at Washington it would seem that there
was some screw loose in the democratic
machinery. The first duty of demo-
cratic journal, and one usually per-
formed with pious promptness, is to
swear fealty to the administration first,
last and all the time. That $40 re-
lief veto works. His excelIenoy will
find this veto business like the "rule"
which the boy threw back at his teacher
with the remark, at is poor rule won't
work both ways.

The supreme court OF Pennsylvania
has before it the question of libel, and is
making an exhaustive enquiry into the
real rights and privileges that should be
accorded the press in case of suits for
libel. The important point is made by
the court that in press publications the
legal implication Of malice is removed
and that no action for damages can DO
sustained without direct proof of the
malice. The second point considered
was whether the truth OF the publioa-
ton is not In itself a complete vindioa-
ton, and whether the defendant was not
entitled to have the jury so instructed.
In both questions the court inclined to
favor the defendant, but deemed the
matter Of so much Importance that 1t
should be adjudlcated by full bench.

The right to vote upon any question
that affects their interests is claimed as
the inalienable right of citizens. and
therefore the right of the people to vote
prohibition cannot be denied them, is
the logic of those who ask for the vote.
On the same principle the rights of the
minority are always to be held in obey
ancs and nothing that the majority de-
cree can be resisted. No sane man in
Texas will dare push this idea to its log
ical conclusion. 1t sanctions everything,
denies everything, makes one law for
Utah, another for Texas and destroys
every inherent right that men may
claim. For purposes of political govern
ment alone. and the control of crime and
its prevention, can the will of the ma
jority claim to control the minority.
